Abstract

Nickel-catalyzed allylation and homoallylation of carbonyl compounds with conjugated dienes promoted by a several kind of organometallic reagents are described. In the presence of Ni(cod)2, trialkylsilanes (R3SiH) serve as reducing agents and promote ω-dienyl aldehydes to undergo intramolecular allylation with high regio- and stereoselectivity. In the presence of indium(I) iodide, Ni(acac)2 catalyzes double allylation of aldehydes with 1,3-butadiene to provide 3-hexene-1,6-diols and/or 2-vinyl-1,4-butanediols. The combination of Ni(acac)2 and triethylborane selectively promotes homoallylation of aromatic aldehydes and α,β-unsaturated aldehydes. The reaction shows high regio- and stereoselectivity. Isoprene, for example, provides 1-substituted 3-methyl-4-pentenols with excellent 1,3-anti stereoselectivity. Diethylzinc, in place of Et3B, nicely promotes the homoallylation of less reactive carbonyl compounds (sterically congested aliphatic aldehydes and ketones). 1,3-Cyclohexadiene is one exception among the dienes examined and undergoes allylation instead of homoallylation under the catalysis of Ni-Et2Zn. Aldimines prepared in situ from aldehydes and p-anisidine undergo homoallylation with 2-substituted-1,3-deines under Ni-Et2Zn catalysis to afford bis-homoallyl amines with excellent 1,3-syn stereoselectivity.
